IWAN BAAN – THE ARCHITECTURE PHOTOGRAPHER

i have recently discovered iwan baan and he seems to have the perfect job!

iwan baan is a mind-blowing architecture photographer: he travels the world and takes amazing pictures of the most avant-gardist structures out there. and he is so good at this that they consider him to be one of the most influential people in contemporary architecture.

i enjoyed spending hours browsing the hundreds and thousands of photographs featured on his website to compile a selection for this post.

and then i discovered his books. and i realized that he may have reserved some of his best work for print. check this: he has a book called insular insight dedicated to the very forward thinking architectural projects on a few inland sea islands in japan: naoshima and teshima. coincidentally some of my favourite places in the country.
